Update

Hi you all,

I've been away for a few days so have some bulletpoints of all the really important things.

• RL: still a charity case, teaching finished, research fucked up in need of replanning, work for next term sorted but no accommodation yet.

• I'm feeling slightly emo about... things.  And how there are so fucking many things I need to deal with and couldn't there be just one or two things, instead of twenty.

• Fanfic writing going well, will report with finished stuff in a couple of weeks. In the meanwhile I have an original slash ficlet out. Feedback would be appreciated.

• I've been busy with Crossroads admin stuff. Hands up who actually knew a) about the site and b) that I was one of the admins. *is amused*

• Editon 4 of the Themed Vid Recs of Doom will be out this week. In case anyone cares.

• That DW trailer: dfk;k'agskagkdsadskfsdkljklgdsa. I think it's safe to say that the interwebs will melt from the hotness. Special mention goes to evil!John Simm who makes me salivate unattractively.

• And yes I know we won't be seeing that hunk parade for another two weeks, but no one, I repeat no one, is to malign the cracktastic cheese-fest that is the EUROVISION SONG CONTEST. I mean come on! And it's from Finland! Guaranteed that will not happen again for the next fifty years so enjoy listening Terry Wogan get increasingly drunk and sarcastic about my home country. Awesome!

• House M.D. Hugh Laurie's biceps (which were especially tasty in last week's episode. Why yes, I am that shallow.)  Deciding to spend my Amazon vouchers on the 2nd season dvd boxset. Reading House/Wilson fic. It's all of the goodness. *bats plot bunnies away*

• Supernatural. I am getting back on track with the viewing so excpect reactions posts about 2.18 - 2.20 soonish. No one is to spoil me about the season ending or anything leading up to it, I want to be as pure as the driven snow... Oi! You on the backgound! Stop sniggering!

• Friends: trinity1986 is funny and cute and will definitely be seeing me again. dark_cygnet lives too far away and I don't get to talk to her as often as I'd like, but she will be getting mcbeck at some point. concernedlily helped me with this thing and will be getting a cracky spn fic (it's sort of... expanding atm). planetkiller also helped me with a thing and will get a small prequel for the truth exists for the wise, beauty for the feeling heart. pushkin666 is to be blamed for any and all porn that I post over the next month, she not only enables but encourages. moth2fic continues to go above and beyond the call of duty. And everyone else, you are all brilliant as usual.

• Aaaand that's it. Can't think of anything else now. Stop by and say hi, share a link, tell a joke, slap me on the face...

You nudged me to that community that I'm not going to talk about on unlocked entry but I'm sure you know what I mean :) I'm writing little ficlets for everyone who helped me with that. I wasn't sure what you'd like but then I remembered that you seemed to enjoy that fic so...

That really sucks but I'm sure you'll be able to figure it out. *pets* What field are you in? - Thank you, I have a meeting with thesis supervisors on Monday so hopefully something positive comes out of it. I'm in social sciences; psychology, criminology, and combination thereof to be precise.

Eurovision is the best crack ever. No one takes it seriously and that's why it's so much fun. The voting is usually ridiculously political, and the outfits make your eyes bleed. I've just spoken with my mum and she says that the good money is on Ukraina this year (she handles betting as part of her job so she should know).

I would recommend watching House wholeheartedly, and not jsut for Hugh Laurie's biceps. Or his awesome collarbones. Or this blue, blue eyes. Or... Erm. No, seriously. The show is fantastic.

Thank you for the fic rec! I know nothing of Firefly, but unfamiliarity with canon has never stopped me before... *goes to read*
